可以说这篇文章“看”起来很美吗?

This essay looks beautiful.
This essay reads beautiful.

In Chinese, we say \"这段文字读起来XXX\", not \"...\"看\"起来...\".
While in English, you have to say \"Sth. reads + adv.\" to express how the
style of a writing is.
e.g. This paragraph reads awkwardLY. (not \"awkward\" here)
e.g. This article reads well. (not \"good/better\" here).
To sum, the word \"读起来\" in English is \"read\", which is arranged in
the active voice.
